Mommy Makeover
During pregnancy, the body undergoes many dramatic changes, some of which are not very flattering. Unfortunately, the changes that naturally occur during pregnancy can sometimes take quite a toll on a woman’s appearance and self-image.This does not mean you have to sacrifice your looks forever just because you’ve had a baby. With a few simple procedures, you can look better than before.
Of course, a woman’s midsection grows considerably during her pregnancy. Although the abdomen begins to return to some degree of normalcy immediately after giving birth, there are often significant and permanent effects of this weight gain. Even after you’ve lost that baby weight, the skin can appear looser, making you look heavier than you really are.
The Mommy Makeover Procedure
To help fix this problem, there’s a procedure called abdominoplasty - more commonly referred to as the “tummy tuck” - that can help you restore your abdomen. With abdominoplasty, you can look and feel better than you have in years!In addition, many women also choose to get a breast lift after having a baby. This may involve relocating the nipple to a higher part of the breast. If you’ve ever considered having breast implants, this may be the best time to do it.
The size of a patient’s breast implants is always dependent on - and often limited by - the amount of skin on the patient’s breasts. Because of the excess skin that is typically caused by breast growth during pregnancy, women who have just had a baby may have more options for breast augmentation than usual.
It’s important to note that breast and abdomen are not the only parts of your body that may change during pregnancy. In fact, most women store fat all over their bodies while they are pregnant. Ultrasonic liposuction also referred to as ultrasonic liposculpture, is a procedure that can treat this additional weight gain, and it can be done on parts of the body that cannot be treated with manual liposuction.
